Osaka brewery INGRY MONGRY announced the start of its event Let's Go to Kōba! in an Instagram post at 5:33 p.m. on November 13, 2025. The theme is weeds. On Friday, November 14, the brewery will run a bar service; on Saturday, November 15, it will host a weed cafe and workshops, serving weed beer on both days.
Hop BroThe Let's Go to Kōba! event that INGRY MONGRY is doing in Osaka is seriously interesting. The theme is the totally unexpected "weeds"!
MugiWhat?! Weeds?! A beer event where roadside grass is the star? That's way too intriguing!
Hop BroFriday, November 14 is bar service from 3:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m., last order 8:30 p.m. Saturday, the 15th is weed cafe + workshops from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., last order 3:30 p.m. And on both days, INGRY MONGRY's weed beer will be on offer.
MugiI hear L.O. all the time, but it's always kind of vague...! And can beginners join the workshop?
Hop BroL.O. stands for last order, the last time you can place an order. The workshops still have open slots, and the post says the morning is especially easy to join, so first-timers should be able to get in easily.
MugiI see! But what style is weed beer? IPA? Sour? Grass-flavored juice?
Hop BroThe style name wasn't specified at the time of the post. The key point here is the botanical expression with a weeds theme. In other words, it's the kind that builds a world through the character of plants, with taste and aroma carrying the concept.
MugiWow, botanical sounds stylish all of a sudden! The weeds inside me are now doing a champagne tower!
Hop BroAnd on the 14th there will be weed-inspired food, and on the 15th even weed sweets. They're also starting sales of weed tenugui towels, and it's a collaboration with fukuipress_ and achico_. It's very much like INGRY MONGRY to go beyond the beer itself and really build the atmosphere.
MugiI have to go! I'll take the sweets and weed beer, and Hop bro will have the food and weed beer, so in the end we'll both be toasting!
Osaka-based INGRY MONGRY will kick off the event Let's Go to Kōba! from Friday, November 14. In the post, the brewery positioned the project as a kickoff event centered on weeds, and said it would be a two-day space spanning food and drink, conversation, and workshops.
The schedule for the event is as follows.
- Friday, November 14: Bar service (weed-inspired food available, first come, first served)
- Hours: 3:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. (last order 8:30 p.m.)
- Saturday, November 15: Weed cafe (weed sweets and beer available) + workshop service
- Hours: 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. (last order 3:30 p.m.)
The post also notes that there are open slots in the workshops, and that the morning is especially easy for people to join. It also states that weed tenugui towels will go on sale from November 14, and that INGRY MONGRY's weed beer will be available on both days.
From a craft beer perspective, INGRY MONGRY continues to present projects that connect not only beer itself, but also food, ingredients, and the creation of a venue. This weeds theme can also be read as an attempt to link local everyday life and plant culture with fermentation. On Instagram, the collaboration posts also show the accounts `fukuipress_` and `achico_` as co-posters, which is notable as a collaboration-based rollout rather than one led solely by the brewery.
